Thank you for replying and I'm pleased it didn't end up being Pancreatitis for you, it's a horrible thing to have and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. They called my family in twice on my first attack as didn't think I was going to make it, my organs were all shutting down. But I pulled...

Hi everyone and Happy New Year. I'm back and trying to remember where I go for things lol. Not been on here for quite a long time in fact a couple of years I would say due to ill health, hospitals admissions etc. I suffer with Acute Pancreatitis which happened or at least my first attack did 3...

Hi, does anyone have any idea how many PP's this will be, please? I had one for tea as couldn't resist. Many thanks x

This is fab, thank you

Well got weighed today and again STS. This is really depressing me now. I know its a case of at least you haven't gained but when you are trying so hard its like being kicked in the teeth and being laughed at!! Think it may be wise to stop until my medication is level and then try again as...

Well this is the 3rd week on the trot have STS, I am getting soooo fed up . I know its a case of at least you haven't gained and wait until my thyroid meds kick in but when you trying and still nothing, it is very depressing. It may be better if I don't bother for now and once I know my meds...

Congratulations on your new job, hope all goes well for you. :D Welcome, Brightnatty, good luck on your weight loss journey.

Hi Jam21 Congratulations on your weight loss, any weight loss is good :D. I'm beginning to think that slimming world isn't for me if going by the scales this morning is anything to go by, said I had put 2lb on ! I know my weigh in day isn't until tomorrow but getting fed up now of sticking...

Thank you...think I will have to do just that. I really didn't think to ask how it was made and the funny thing was, I said no to a cooked breakfast as thought that might been too high. I would only have had bacon, egg, mushroom and tomatoes, I even thought about a jacket potatoe...think...

I had a piece of cottage pie at lunch time today when I was out with my Mum and now I am worried that it will be high in syns!! I have no idea what the mash was made with and can't imagine the mince would have been extra lean either. Does anyone know what I should syn it at please? Thank you

Hi Miss Lindsay Try not to be too disappointed if you do STS, this could also be due to your muscle weighing heavy as well, if you are doing the exercise as well. Make sure you take measurements of yourself so you can keep a check on that as you may be losing inches rather then ounces and...

horrid

Hi guys, Well I got weighed at home today, 2nd weigh in and I have STS again. I am disappointed, who wouldn't be but as my medication for my underactive thyroid is still being adjusted and monitored, I suppose STS is good. At least once my levels have been sorted then I should start seeing a...

Well this is my 2nd weigh in and have STS again.....disappointed but not too much seeing as my medication for my underactive thyroid is still being adjusted and monitored. Once that has been sorted correctly then I should start seeing a loss so for the time being a STS is good enough for me at...

I've not joined a group so don't have the up to date books. Just going on the books a friend gave me which does have the EE plan in them, so not sure what year there! Thank you for looking at my diary and I'm pleased it looks okay so far :)

20/01/12 Really should read books properly as thought could use granary bread as HEB when I had a tuna mayo sandwich, but oh no, that is not a HEB....then had a few alcoholic drinks at lunch as was a friends 50th birthday, which thought okay not too bad, but then went out for tea with hubby to...

You're welcome. I'm learnng all the time too. :)

Hiya Thank you and good luck to you too on your weight loss journey :D

Well done on STS though eh, at least you've not put any on, which is a bonus especially when our meds need increasing, thats how I am thinking at the moment :D. I've been feeling terrible the last few months the same as you plus putting weight on. Even when I was poorly the other month and I...

They are quick and easy meals you can have in a mug for which you just add water :D, they come in various flavours and you can have either pasta or noodle. Very nice and filling, see the thread below...

19/01/12 Not really had a brilliant day today, fed up, depressed and really couldn't be bothered to cook anything. Had an easy breakfast to which just added water, eat out in a cafe and then had a chinese takeaway !! :sigh: HEA - Skimmed Milk HEB - Porridge Breakfast - Oats so simple pot...

Work.....some people at work are a bloody nightmare for me, lol

Well done, Gero, that is fantastic news. Hopefully I will be putting my weight losses on here soon, lol. Not heard of the rash/red bumps before so cannot say if was anything to do with underactive thyroid or the tablets you are taking for it. Does the leaflet with the tablets say anything...

Hi Jam21 I'm glad I have been following the plan as like you stated if I'd hadn't I may have put on last week instead of staying the same....hopefully we'll all start to lose soon once our meds are sorted :) Would love to keep in touch with you as well and see how you are getting on :D xx

Hi Hun First of all, welcome and I really hope you have a weight loss. Second, get you blooming tablets taken, ha ha :D The tablets really help keep everything in check, including your metabolism. I currently take 100 mg was on 75mg but have to go again in a few weeks for more blood to...

Those are far too sweet for me, hence I like the Horlicks Light Malted Milk drink. I don't take sugar in any drinks and can only just about manager the Malteser one, lol Thank you for your info though :D

That is a lot, I have quite a few sachets of these. Will have to have one every so often, I can think of better things to put my syns to :D

Wow, if it is then I will definitely be getting some, lol :)

Is the Time out 34 g bar, 9 syns for both pieces?

can anyone tell me how many syns a sachet would be please? Calories for the sachet says 120!!

It is strange. Must admit though there are quite a few potatoes in it. Yum, yum :)

I will, thank you. Good luck to you on your weight loss journey and hope to speak to you soon. :) xx

Thank you for the hugs, hun. I don't attend meetings as I have done this in the past and found the leaders don't really want to know and I end up getting impatient with them, lol. Hopefully once the meds kick in, I'll be able to see a loss but in the meantime I will just continue with the...

Thank you. Yes that does seem weird 7 syns on red !

Any ideas on how many syns this would be please. Weight Watchers Frozen Beef & Red Wine Casserole. Thank you

Hi my name is Tracy and started SW at home on the EE plan last week - I do have some old books that a friend gave me so am using them as well as this site. I weigh in on a Sunday which unfortunately this week showed that I had only STS and cried my eyes out last night. :cry: I have since found...

Thank you for your support, I really appreciate it. :) I don't actually go to meetings I am doing it at home with a friends old books and this forum. I have just found out today as well that my medication for my thyroid needs increasing, so that will start tomorrow. Wondering now if that...

congratulations to you, keep up the good work :)

Congratulations, keep up the good work :) xx

Thank you for you encouragement :) I have also just heard from my doctor this morning that my thyroid tablets need increasing as the levels are not quite right. This could be one reason why not lost this week but either way will continue to try and hopefully it will pay off in the end.

Thank you for all your encouragement and advise. I do drink plenty of water all through the day as well as coffee. I only use the milk from my HEA and as for HEB this is usually either used on porridge or bread which I share between the week, one day bread the other porridge etc. If had...

Thank you, I'll try it for another week.

No not posted any diary, still getting my head round the site and not sure how you do that yet? Most of my days I have porridge and a piece of fruit for breakfast and a 0% activia, lunches consist of either left over pasta/rice dish from the night before with salad, or a mugshot or a sandwich...

Thank you, just can't get my head round not losing anything. Other diets I have tried before I have lost even if it was only a lb but am feeling that I shouldn't be allowed to eat as much as you can!

Congratulations to you all on your weight losses :) I weigh in on a Sunday and this was my first this morning but unfortunately I have stayed the same !!!!! Soooo disappointed I just cried:cry: My first few days of EE plan didn't go very well as I didn't quite understand it but after that I...

Can't believe my weigh in this mornng showed I have stayed the same not even an ounce off !!! This is my first week as well, sooo disappointed to say the least :cry:I really don't know what to do now. My first few days of EE plan didn't go very well as I didn't quite understand it but after...

Welcome to the forum Leaserule, good luck on your weight loss journey. :)

Thank you, I am sure I will learn as I am going along. Fingers crossed for Sunday weigh in. x

Hi Fran13 Welcome to the site and I totally agree, I love this site as well, it's fab. Good luck on your weight loss journey and look forward to hearing about your losses :) My first weigh in is on Sunday...aarggh xx

Hi Sham88 Good luck to you too on your weight loss journey. xx

Not had any for 2 days and already feel less bloated. Thank you. x

Thank you, fingers crossed.

Not sure if I have been having the Superfree food as you are supposed to. For breakfast I have had either the alpen light bars or porridge. For lunch I have either had a sandwich with meat and lettuce, a yoghurt and for evening meal my hubby cooks either curries or chillies etc with rice and...

Oh dear, think I may have misunderstood it as well, I'm on the EE plan. So this could mean that I might gain rather than lose on Sunday when I weigh in ! Thank you for posting this, it has really helped. x

Hi Ellie I started SW on Monday but doing it from home, not joined a group or online. I have found that this site is a god send and full of everything you need or would like to know and everyone is sooo helpful. Don't be afraid to ask anything, someone will answer you. Good luck in your...

Thank you for this, it has really helped me understand the Healthy extras x :) I am currently doing the EE which I am really enjoying and started this on Monday but if find that I haven't lost anything within 2 weeks then I will have a go at doing Red & Green days. x

Congratulations to all who have lost this week. :-) Keep it up and hopefully I will be posting a weight loss on Sunday too. xx

Congratulations on your weight loss :) Even 1lb would be great for me lol, hoping when I step on the scales on Sunday morning it shows this. x

Thank you. :) I am sure I will get better as each week goes on and will definitely only eat until I feel full. Sometimes it only takes half a sandwich and I feel full, lol.

Hi Picklepud Loving the name, lol....I am a newbie here too and started the EE plan on Monday. I'm still getting my head round how much you can eat though and frightened I might eat too much, but so far loving it except the feeling a bit bloated! Hope to speak again soon and good luck with...

Thank you, I will try taking more water. I did notice today however that wasn't as bloated as didn't have bread or 2 alpen light bars like I had the other days. This morning I had porridge and a jacket for lunch. :)

can anyone help me on the syns for the sticky toffee pudding at Frankie & Bennies, please? Thank you Tracy

Hi all, I am a newbie and doing this from home too, find it more relaxing and hopefully with this site and everyones help I will lose weight. But I really cannot believe how much you can eat and still lose weight! I have gone to meetings before but this was when I was doing WW and was...

Aw, really :cry: I thought these might be free on the EE as they are on the Green plan ! Thank you :)

Are these roasted soya beans free on the EE plan? If not how many syns are they please? Thank you :) Please accept my apologies if this has already been mentioned before in another thread but I am new to this site. Tracy :)

Hi Chocolateworm Thank you for the information. I think I may be a bit confused with this plan so can I just query the one only hx please? Someone at work told me that on Red & Green days you could choose 2 of each of the healthy a & b options but on EE is was only the one ! Am I...

Hi I am a newbie and just wondering if you are doing the EE plan can you have porridge in the morning and bread for lunch? Or do you have to count one of them as syns ! Thank you x

Thank you so much for this thread, Squiddie, it is very useful for a newbie. I am really hoping to do well on SW, which i am going to start in morning and thinking of trying the EE plan. I've not got any of the books but was hoping someone will let me know what the Healthy Ops are please for...

Hi I am new to Minimins and Slimming World so any help would be appreciated. I only have about a stone and half to lose but really would like the help. Someone I know told me about this sight as they do calorie counting but that isn't for me as fed up of weighing and watching how many calories...
